In recent years, Rebel Wilson has surprised the entire world with her physical transformation in relation to her weight. Many of her met her with a few extra kilos, a situation that she took advantage of to obtain memorable roles in various productions. one of them was Perfect notes, musical comedy from 2012 in which, along with a great cast, he conquered millions of viewers around the world.
In that tape, which became a trilogy, Wilson gave life to Patricia, better known as “Fat Amy” (Fat Amy), who joins the Bellas as one of their most talented and eccentric members. The character became one of the favorites of the audience, and although she brought worldwide fame to her interpreter, she also prevented her from having the physique that she currently possesses.
This was revealed by the actress during her participation in the podcast Call Her Daddy:
“I waited until Perfect notes seemed to be over (to lose weight). I couldn’t lose a huge amount of weight because it was in the contracts for that movie. I couldn’t lose, I think, more than 10 pounds, and I couldn’t gain more than 10 pounds. ´You have to keep the weight. It’s in your contract.
On one hand, it makes sense that the studio behind the film would not want to lose its “Fat Amy.” The character’s success was immense, so much so that she gained more prominence as the franchise progressed. If Rebel Wilson lost weight, the nickname “Fat Amy” would lose its meaning. But success was not the most important thing for Wilson. Although she became a recognized figure in the comedies of the time, she also felt typecast in the same type of roles.
“I was thinking for a while that I would like to be healthier. I was stereotyped playing that funny fat friend, which is very difficult because I love those roles. I love playing those roles, I love those characters. But then I wanted to do more stuff, and I felt like being the older girl, you’re more typecast,” she added.
During her time in the Perfect Notes trilogy, Rebel Wilson participated in films such as A night at the museum 3, How to be single, either Blood Sweat and glory, among other. In some of them, her physical appearance was one of the traits that characterized the characters, and this explains the actress’s decision to do new projects. the year of my graduationhis most recent comedy, was the first film where Wilson showed off his renewed figure.
Perfect notes is available on HBO Max.
